Hoops season has officially opened! Would love to hear everyone's take for this year!
I think WCAL title will be between Mitty and SI. Bellarmine graduated their stellar class so they should come back down to the rest of the league. Serra and St. Francis will be tough games for everyone because they are coached really well regardless of talent. Riordan if they can get production out of their post players will have a real good shot at winning league. SH and VC will duke it out at the bottom.
Mitty will have a more seasoned Mitchell this year to go along with Sapp, Bey, Vaughn and Aguilar. Likely the best starting 5 in league. SI is going to be tall and athletic with Cason, Begovich, Robinson 3-headed monster.
Easy my friend. With Fresno now being placed in the north I would take Jalen Green and whoever is going along with him. Hands down. Not even close. I don't want to sound like a jerk, I respect your opinion. I just think Jalen is Really good.I’m sure Riordan will have something to say about this. Best backcourt in Northen California.
Jalen Green and SJM got a 6-11 Las Vegas Prospects player out of Utah named Braxton Meah
Still haven't seen a roster yet. Irish have a scrimmage at Berkeley and the "CCS Sportsmanship" game at Hillsdale and of course, no home pre-season games. Just the Alumni Game...Hoops season has officially opened! Would love to hear everyone's take for this year!
I just want to give a special shout out to the Gridley Invitational people this year.
The lineup is absolutely stacked and it truly is the best High School tournament in Norcal.
Can someone share the link to the tourney?I just want to give a special shout out to the Gridley Invitational people this year.

Here's wishing you great hoops

Monterey would be the heavy favorite in D3 CCS, should they be placed there and not the Open this year. They return 4 starters. SHC be a solid contender if Monterey goes to the Open.8) SH - CCS D3
and I predict if SH doesnt win CCS D3 finals, a new coaching search will begin.

My initial WCAL title projections are based on returning players from last season and projected additions. I like Renard Monroe's selections as well. Should be great games of the contenders between Mitty, Riordan SI and Serra
7. SHC (Flowers, Reed, Bow, Chen, Johns)
Lose Neal Jr., Monroe, Oglesby, Hudson. Add El Cerrito guard transfer?, frosh Jackson?
Yes. Indeed. Looking forward to an exciting season!Smh... two 1st team all league players on the same team. Enough said on that...Kori McCoy is the El Cerrito transfer. I have coached him since the 6th grade. Oscar Cheng is SHC's big fella also played on my "B" team.
Serra adds a 6"9 transfer from Woodside Priory in Muti Shuman, will be the strongest basketball player in the WCAL.
Both teams looked horrible. Irish just had a little heightIrish scrimmage at Berkeley at 6pm. First game is on Nov. 15 at Hillsdale at 6pm. I haven't seen a roster yet. I won't see them until the Alumni Game.
CAPITAL Christian is not in GridleyYes. Indeed. Looking forward to an exciting season!
The upcoming Gridley Tournament appears loaded with all the teams in the NorCal Top 20 except for Gridley - Sheldon, Salesian, Capital Christian, Dublin, Riordan, Logan, St. Joe's and Branson! Bummed that Bryce won't yet be eligible to play.
Sheldon and Modesto Christian are a strong 1-2 in NorCal. All the other teams appear significantly below them...
You are correct.My bad on Capital Christian.CAPITAL Christian is not in Gridley

I saw the Alumni games. Amin Olgelsby, LyRyan Russell, Herman Pratt, Gary Hudson, Jazmine Jackson, Kiki Moore and Brianna Smith played for the Alumni.
Irish varsity starting five looked good. I saw Ray Jackson on the JV team.
Looks like Reed, Cheng, Flowers, Mims and the EC transfer is Kori McCoy. He's a Junior. The Alumnae girls played before this game and some played during the boys game. Jazmine Jackson, Briannah Smith and Kiki Moore played. Jazmine Jackson hit a three.I’m assuming the starting 5 is Reed, Flowers, the transfer from EC, Mims and Cheng?

The crowd was over 100 but not a lot of alums played.
Jackson, Dowling and Branch--Haynes are all on the JV's. McCormick is a former frosh football player now on the Varsity.I just put my face in my hands just reading that part. El Cerrito transfer I remember reading before is a 6'0 guard. Cant remember his name. They added Devin Mims from their frosh team last year. Evan Branch-Haynes will likely join after football season is over unless he (outside influences) decide to be football only. Tyrice Ivy is a likely add after football as well. As I've said before about MacKay, his staple is doing more with less talent. Relying on team than star players. Lets get the show started!
Riordan's JVs (coached by Rich Forslund) win the Crusader Classic by edging Serra. The Crusaders have 3 frosh on the roster.Jackson, Dowling and Branch--Haynes are all on the JV's. McCormick is a former frosh football player now on the Varsity.
I did see the SHC frosh scrimmage against Lincoln. There's some talent out there. I was surprised there were so many people attending a 10am scrimmage. I suspect most of them were parents and family members. A lot of cameras were out.Riordan's JVs (coached by Rich Forslund) win the Crusader Classic by edging Serra. The Crusaders have 3 frosh on the roster.
Riordan Frosh A's lose by 2 against Piedmont's JVs and Frosh B lose to Piedmont's lone Frosh team.
